Hi there
Just wondering if there are any real negatives to getting an ASD diagnosis (apart from the obvious emotional cr*p of course!!). Basically ds is borderline ASD/language disorder. We have seen a really good mainstream with an ASD unit which I love because all the kids are integrated into mainstream regardless of their difficulties and go on ability so for reading etc. And they really help/support kids with social communication probs. The problem is you need a diagnosis of ASD so now we are in the process of pushing for a diagnosis from the pediatrician.
Am I doing the right thing??
Here are some suggested organisations that offer expert advice on special needs.
SN children
Are there any down sides to getting an ASD diagnosis?
